Professional-Grade Tool for Efficient Honey Harvesting
This heavy-duty, adjustable uncapping fork is engineered for the demands of commercial apiaries and serious beekeepers. Designed for speed, durability, and precision, it is an essential tool for uncapping honeycomb frames quickly and cleanly before honey extraction. Its robust construction and versatile features ensure it will be a reliable workhorse in any honey house.
Key Features and Design
This uncapping fork combines thoughtful design with high-quality materials to deliver superior performance.
-
Dual-Function Head: The tool features a multi-purpose head for maximum efficiency.
- 17 Sharp Tines: A wide row of 17 sharp, stainless steel needles effortlessly penetrates and lifts wax cappings without causing excessive damage to the comb. This design makes the uncapping process significantly faster than with a standard knife.
- Integrated Scraper Blade: A solid, triangular scraper is built into the frame opposite the tines. This is perfect for removing residual wax from low spots or sunken areas on the comb that the tines might miss, ensuring a thoroughly uncapped frame every time.
-
Adjustable Tine Depth: A key feature of this uncapping fork is its adjustability. Equipped with two wing nuts, the tine bar can be easily moved to control the depth of penetration. This allows the beekeeper to adapt the tool to different comb thicknesses and uncapping preferences, from shallow cuts to deeper ones.
-
Durable, High-Quality Construction:
- Stainless Steel Frame: The entire head, including the frame, tines, and scraper, is constructed from high-grade stainless steel. This provides exceptional strength, prevents rust and corrosion, and ensures the tool is easy to clean and sanitize, which is critical for honey production.
- Solid Wood Handle: The ergonomic handle is crafted from solid, smoothly polished wood. Its turned design with grooves provides a comfortable, non-slip grip, reducing hand fatigue during long hours of work. A pre-drilled hole at the end of the handle allows for convenient hanging storage.
Applications and Advantages
The primary application for this tool is the removal of wax cappings from frames of honey. Its design offers several advantages over traditional methods.
- Increased Efficiency: The wide head and numerous tines allow beekeepers to uncap a large surface area with a single pass, drastically reducing the time and effort required per frame.
- Versatility: The combination of an adjustable fork and a fixed scraper in one tool means you can handle virtually any frame condition, from perfectly flat combs to uneven ones.
- Reduced Waste: Unlike a hot knife that can melt excess wax and darken honey, an uncapping fork lifts the cappings with minimal mess and preserves the integrity of the comb, making it easier for bees to repair and reuse.
- Built for Commercial Use: Every component is designed for longevity. The stainless steel resists the acidic nature of honey and frequent washing, while the securely fastened wooden handle can withstand the rigors of a commercial operation.
Value for Your Business
For Commercial Beekeepers: This uncapping fork is a long-term investment that pays for itself in time saved and increased productivity during the harvest season. Its durability means fewer replacements and less downtime.
For Beekeeping Supply Distributors: Offering this professional-grade uncapping fork enhances your product catalog with a high-quality, in-demand item. It appeals to customers looking for a step up from basic plastic tools and provides them with a reliable, long-lasting solution. Its professional appearance and superior functionality make it an easy sell to both experienced hobbyists and commercial apiarists.
